Mistborn Deleted Scenes Explanation

On this page, I’ll include an archive of links to Mistborn: The Final Empire deleted scenes, as I post them to my website. I’ve decided that the easiest way to do this is to point back at the original blog post where I show off the scenes and discuss them. I’ll leave the explanations to the posts themselves.

Prologue Revisions: In the following series of deleted scenes, I show the evolution of the prologue to the book. It went through a number of drafts before ending at its final state. I suggest grabbing the book so that you can read the fourth version (which is the one that got published) as you read through the evolution of the scenes below. This contains slight spoilers, but not really that many, since it’s dealing with the first scene of the book.

Mistborn Prime and Final Empire Prime Chapters: Before I wrote Mistborn: The Final Empire I wrote a rough draft of a book I simply called Mistborn. After that, I wrote a book I called The Final Empire. These were books set in separate worlds, completely unconnected. When it came time to do a follow-up to Elantris, I looked back at these two books and remembered how fond I was of elements of both of them. I decided to combine them, starting from scratch, and using the best elements of both to create a new book. That became Mistborn: The Final Empire.

I’ve put up some of the chapters from the original books to be read and enjoyed. They’re old, they’re rough, and they have a lot of flaws. But, for the person interested in how my writing process works, they might be interesting.

List all metro areas (or reasonably small states or countries) where you want to hear about all events where Brandon will be appearing. General and unambiguous is better than specific, and avoid smaller cities with the same name as larger ones. Examples: Utah Valley, Orange County, Bay Area, Washington DC. If you're in southern British Columbia, put Vancouver or Victoria. If you're in Vancouver WA, put Portland. For Portland ME just put Maine. For London Ontario put Toronto. In the UK put the nearest large metro area: London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Liverpool, Southampton, etc.
